Li-FT Power (TSXV:LlFT) - Fast-Tracking to Beat Inevitable Lithium Oversupply
21 Jan 2024
Interview with Francis MacDonald, CEO of Li-FT PowerOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/li-ft-power-advancing-high-grade-lithium-project-quickly-through-the-phasesRecording date: 8th December 2023This Lithium Explorer is Racing the Clock to ProductionWhile the recent plunge in lithium prices has paralyzed many industry players, one ambitious developer sees the current slump as an ideal opportunity to aggressively advance its large-scale project.Li-FT Power controls the high-grade Yellowknife lithium pegmatite deposit, which is already visible from satellite imagery. Historic work and initial drilling has revealed both the significant size potential and consistently robust grades of this asset.With the sector embroiled in turmoil, Li-FT's CEO Francis MacDonald believes now is the optimal time to expedite resource expansion and development. As rivals batten down the hatches, Li-FT is moving swiftly to demonstrate the world-class attributes of its deposit and sprint towards production ahead of the field.The rationale is clear - establish low operating costs early to ride out periods of oversupply. MacDonald explains, “You want to have built it five years before and have paid off all your capex and captured market share." With future waves of new lithium projects inevitable, early movers will enjoy major cost advantages.Most crucially, Li-FT has just commenced an aggressive 15,000 meter drill campaign to rapidly expand resources. While peers preserve cash in weaker conditions, Li-FT continues drilling to extend its strategic head start.The company's bold moves to solidify its early mover status ahead of the competition could reward shareholders handsomely. As markets rebalance and lithium prices recover, Li-FT may have a clear path towards lower-cost production thanks to its foresight and speed.For investors seeking leveraged upside to the coming wave of lithium demand growth, Li-FT Power presents a unique opportunity - the chance to back a motivated operator urgently developing a large asset ahead of the industry cost curve.—Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/li-ft-power-ltdSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
